The 6th Kosrae Games BOOST UP the Utwe pride campaign

Thousands of spectators gathered around the Tofol field to witness the 6th Kosrae track and field events on November 11th 2013. Utwe pride campaign was so honored and grateful for this opportunity to create the community buzz to increase the level of knowledge of the people of Kosrae about the Utwe biosphere Reserve marine protected area. Having said this, Utwe pride campaign would like to express its deepest appreciation to the Kosrae State Sport Council, athletes, and people of Utwe and all who have participated during the game. Without the supports, Utwe pride campaign would not able to accomplish its goal of the day, which was to promote a respected MPA at the Utwe biosphere reserve.
During the parade, athletes and people from Utwe marched in the field with visors to attract the attention of the spectators. Many of the visors were given to the dignitaries who have presented during the games. After the parade, Senator Josiah Waguk was given an opportunity to promote the goals of the Utwe pride campaign and he also elaborated the message written on the visors. Utwe pride campaign was also pleased to meet the YELA pride campaign during the event.
